EE-SX951P-W 1M

Optical Sensors are used to detect presence, change or absence of light. Photointerrupters, also known as photodetectors, are a type of optical sensor commonly used for position sensing and count applications. They consist of an optics package that includes an infrared LED, a phototransistor and a shield, and usually require little or no alignment. Slot Type Photointerrupters are a specific type of Photointerrupter that utilizes an infrared LED and a phototransistor which are optically coupled and are designed to detect objects moving through a slot. Slot Type Photointerrupters with Transistor Output, like the EE-SX951P-W 1M, have a wide variety of applications due to their accuracy and low cost.

The EE-SX951P-W 1M is a compact photointerrupter module with a Toshiba LED and a PHOTOTRANSISTOR with slider detector. It measures just 7.6 mm in length, making it a small, lightweight option for optical position sensing or object counting applications. The device is molded based on UL approved polycarbonate material, which ensures superior mechanical strength and high-temperature resistance. It is also integrated with an emission and detection shutters for increased safety and reliability.

The EE-SX951P-W 1M is designed to detect objects moving through a slot. It has a sensitive photo sensor that is activated when any object, even a thin paper, moves through the slot. The photo sensor is integrated with an infrared LED which generates a short light pulse when the object is detected. This light pulse is detected by the Phototransistor which then produces an output signal. This output signal is then transmitted to the external circuit, where the output signal can be further processed for counting or other applications.

The EE-SX951P-W 1M is ideal for applications such as machine counting, optical object sensing, presence/absence detection, and position sensing. As it is a compact device, it is also suitable for use in limited space applications. In addition, the EE-SX951P-W 1M has high repeatability, high voltage withstanding capability, and superior noise immunity, making it a reliable and accurate sensing device.

In summary, the EE-SX951P-W 1M is a compact, lightweight photointerrupter module with a Toshiba LED and a PHOTOTRANSISTOR with slider detector. It is designed to detect objects moving through a slot and produces an output signal which can be further processed for applications such as machine counting, optical object sensing, presence/absence detection, and position sensing. It has a sensitive photo sensor integrated with an infrared LED which generates a short light pulse when the object is detected, and has a high voltage withstanding capability, high repeatability, and superior noise immunity.
